I am moving back to the US in October and will need a connection from AT&T. I will be purchasing the new iPhone 5 64GB and will need a line for it, and will also require a line for my Blackberry as well. Next year, I will also be getting the next iPhone (5S) on release.

Is it better to get the iPhone 5 straight away from Apple at full price (849) or get it from AT&T with my new line (399), keeping in mind I will be upgrading to the iPhone 5S next year? Which option is cheaper overall?

I haven't used AT&T in 4 years and am not up-to-date with their plans, so your help is appreciated. I understand the contract is 2 years and there is a charge to upgrade early, but not sure of the exact amounts and details.
